Gemma: I fibbed over my fella

Gemma: I fibbed over my fellaSTUNNING Gemma Atkinson yesterday admitted she fibbed about being single before entering the jungle — in case she met a Tarzan.

The ex-Hollyoaks star, 23, told campmates she hid her rekindled relationship with Wigan Athletic striker Marcus Bent, 29.

She said: “I didn’t want to say anything about him in case something happened with me in here. It would make him look silly.”

The busty actress has been getting close to former 5ive singer J.

Yesterday J gave her a small bouquet of flowers, prompting Janice to scream: “He’s got a crush on you!”

Shows how much she likes her boyfriend to lie about not having one and wanting to meet someone else.:conf:

Bit of a strange situation really...

On the one hand, she "apparently" worries so much about her boyfriend, she wants to protect him from looking silly if she gets with someone else in the jungle.

But what blows that completely out of the water is the fact she is contemplating the possibility of things happening elsewhere with someone else.

So the "worrying about her boyfriend looking silly" situation is most likely completely untrue...as if you worried that much, and cared that much, the possibility of seeing other people wouldn't exist.

Major contradiction really.

See, maybe even the nice girls are still nothing but selfish cheaters =]

I think she meant like she didnt want anything to happen to him like if a similar bad press and stuff happened, It sounds like she meant it like that, so I dunno why they said the tazan bit :S

I suppose it would be a slightly stupid thing to announce in camp...
But lying about being single to protect your boyfriend could backfire if any boys in there think you're available and try it on.

That's exactly what would get the newspapers talking.

Anyhow, I think they all know she's taken anyway? Plus she mentioned about the little signs she makes when the verdicts by Ant and Dec are given out, and one was for her boyfriend to let him know she's missing him? as far as I recall.

So I guess it doesn't matter anymore.
